I wonder when NZ will move away from the quasi-free-market-but-funded-by-the-government system in health (and education). It leads to outcomes like this which are clearly inefficient. I’d like to see more centralisation.

    Why not free for everyone? Higher earners already pay higher and more tax. And it avoids that people wait too long before going to a GP, saving costs as well.

    I’m from Europe where a GP is free for everyone and it’s amazing.

      Mostly just because I think we should be eating the rich anyway.
